This class has a great deal of fun exploring! We are learning by exploring different art materials, pouring, scooping, sweeping and otherwise working on our small motor strength and abilities.

The Early Learners age group is ready for an abundance of language acquisition so they are learning what words to use in different situations. We talk often about our feelings, what they are called and how to appropriately express them. We also learn to really look at and listen to each other and notice facial expressions, body language and voice tones to help us understand each other. Additionally we introduce the alphabet and work on recognizing our names and our classmates' names.

We learn about numbers, counting and one to one correlation as a beginning base for mathematics.

This age group is very physically active so we begin learning about personal space as well as spatial awareness, how our bodies move and build confidence in trying out new physical abipties.

Early Learners have lots of opportunities to work on social and emotional awareness, how to be kind, patient and respectful. We are learning how to take turns, how to share and let others know what our needs are as we become more and more independent.

Pre-K children are just sponges for learning! They are excited to learn new information and explore everything! They are learning to ask deeper questions as well as how to explore to find the answers to their questions. Each monthly unit provides opportunities to learn about new parts of life from different seasons, to outer space and the wide world around us.

Imagination play explodes at this age and gives lots of opportunities to learn problem solving, compromising and concern for others. We build on social and emotional learning to further respectful communication skills.

All academics are learned through interesting activities and play. Our goal is for children to have a love of learning. To that end, our activities are hands-on and full of exploration. With our small group sizes, children get lots of individual attention as they learn and are never pressured to continue when they are ready to move onto more active activities.

Children are learning to write their names, recognize and write other letters in the alphabet and their sounds. They are learning numbers and math concepts to prepare them for success in Kindergarten.

We stay in contact with wonderful Kindergarten teachers so we are in line with what the current expectations are.

Independence is an important piece of preparing for Kindergarten. Learning to put on coats and shoes, toileting hygiene, waiting patiently and how to ask for help are the skills we hear over and over again are some of the most important foundations to be successful. We strive to ensure each of our Pre K students can function independently in an age appropriate way.

Of course we still make sure we have lots of active and messy play!
